About this spot
Tucked away in Shinjuku near Okubo Station, this spot serves piping hot Korean cold noodles (naengmyeon) that are tangy and refreshing enough to beat the summer heat. The broth is a clear, spicy beef stock with chewy buckwheat noodles, while the accompanying raw beef slices add a savory depth that elevates the dish beyond standard street fare.

- Order extra raw beef (suk) on the side if you want to soak it into your spicy broth for a richer flavor.
